Replacing Barefoot

I need your help again. I took your everybody's advice in planning the shows I would see on my June vacation, and among them was Barefoot in The Park. As you know, that is now closing May 21, leaving me with an open matinee spot on June 7. I would still like to see a play.Here are the shows I am considering:

Festen
The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial
The History Boys

I am already seeing Awake and Sing!, Faith Healer and Three Days of Rain during this trip. Any advice would be appreciated.

Wow! You are sure making this easier than my other show decisions! I guess I am going to see The History Boys. Thank You.

The best show in the world is Wicked, what else would you see.
Ahh this is dripping with sarcasm.

I heard great things about History Boys, so see that and be sure to post a review!

The History Boys is as close to perfection as you can get. :)

WickedGeek, I have seen Wicked 3 times since January 26. I think I need a little time off from it before see it again.Nyspotlight, I thought about off-broadway plays but I have to be close to Schubert Alley for the Stars in the Alley concert that day at noon, making that virtually impossible. The great thing is now that both shows I am seeing that day (The History Boys and Faith Healer) are on either side of Schubert Alley (The History Boys on 44th, and Faith Healer on 45th). I thank you for your suggestions. I know I will enjoy The History Boys. I got Orchestra Row H Center Aisle (10th row), a major improvment from my balcony seats for Barefoot. I will be writing reviews for every show I see on my vacation, and making my Tony predictions at the end.
